Same for F2003. I think allocation upon assignment is one "painful" area, as discussed here recently. > What can we do as code developers to "help" the compiler? > > Other ideas? When will you have a Fortran 2003 compiler? If a compiler offers free updates for the next N months, will they have a Fortran 2003 compiler in N months? What is your timeline on adding specific features? If g95 has a Fortran 2003 feature, I'll be more likely to employ it if Intel Fortran has it now or will have it in a few months.

Now taking wagers...vote for the compiler vendor (one of their products on any platform) that will first achieve 100% compliance (realize that some of these may not be in the race or for some operating systems): Absoft Lahey/Fujitsu Intel Silverfrost/Salford HP IBM NAG PGI SUN Pathscale G95 GFortran Other I should set up a voting web site... ---> For reasons beyond my understanding, this newsreader fails to add '>' in cases; I can't figure it out. Another question for Bill's visitor: what does he hear about the other vendors, to wit, the above? -- "We wouldn't have a police department that had to show a profit every year - or a fire department that had to show a profit every year. We shouldn't do that with our health care system, either." ~~ Michael Moore
